Card sharing system...

[Raven316]

Does anyone have a good card sharing system they use between decks? I have all my dual lands and other special lands in a deck box and go and get the cards I need and when I finish I take them out and put them back. I want to know if anyone has a good system for the rest of the cards? I'm trying to find an effective and quick way to switch cards between decks making sure you don't forget anything in the process. I was thinking of taking out all the shared cards in a different deck box and retrieve as needed does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Many even a spreadsheet would be awesome if anyone has one

I have all my cards in the same sleeves, and I use this app to keep track of my decks, pull and sub between them. My U/B control deck has the same control package (and {Snapcaster Mage}s) as my U/W Esper deck. My Grand Illusion shares some with my Esper deck too.

I like to see my successful concoctions as an entity more than a pile of cards. It's ridiculous, I know, but once a deck honorably beats another planeswalker with me piloting it, the cards within that pile become bonded. Small alterations may happen, and unless complete deconstruction occurs, I find other copies of cards that I have within those decks for my other crazy ideas. This hunt is only finalized after strict playtesting with proxies of said cards within the shell of the deck I presume to build, if it seems legit. The only time I bypass this is if I am building a "Dream Deck", such as a Tribal, EDH, or Ravnica/Eventide Guild deck. Also from time to time I have dissected a couple of my decks and replaced vitals with new parts, often creating two "Twins", so to speak. Which hold two distinct goals, that the Original attempted to pilot in a single shell. Some tend to suffer from cases of sibling rivalry and leave their counterparts in the dust, often forgotten, sadly this happened with my Zendikar Tribal Vamps when I made my Mono-Black Control. I've been slowly recesitating the bloodsuckers.

I'm rambling, apologies, to make a long story short, cards within a good deck, stay loyal to that deck alone. If a new deck requires the card(s), I find new copies.

I am the exact same way. My friends think I'm nuts bc they will suggest cards from one of my decks for another and I cannot take them out unless I have a good replacement or it was just a filler to begin with. No sideboards, no sharing, no replacing. The only time I do it is, like he said, when I'm completely scrapping a deck and don't like the way it works. Honestly, think about the concept. Compare it to Dr Frankenstein and his monster. Do you think the doc made the monster then went digging thru more graves to say "dammit, that piece would be so much better than the one I put in.". Or similarly, he says "woohoo I found enough pieces for two monsters, except I'm missing another brain. Oh well, they will just share!"

BLAST! I'm monologuing. Anyway. To each his own. But I just can't do it. It just takes away the creative essence of building a deck. I love that feeling when I come up with an idea and think of my first few cards saying, "awesome idea! But do I have the cards? Whatever, I'll make it work. "

[Dudecore2012]

I was like that, but since standard is always changing, I can't really justify 2 playsets of {Snapcaster Mage}, {Phantasmal Image}, {Wurmcoil engine} and swords. My legacy decks are always together, and I'll retire my Illusion deck intacted, but my evolving FNM decks share cards

[Quackmaster5]

That's very true too. I have standard decks but don't compete in tourneys and stuff so when that deck cycles out, it just isn't considered standard to me anymore. Idk I'm weird bc I dont do FNM.

With my group of friends we always play vintage and now started edh  so sharing cards is a must

I agree completly! I dont want to have uncomplete decks around. Just feels... Chaotic.

[BlackJester]

I agree with the non-sharing.  This forces me to build decks that are unique to other decks I have, or dismantle old decks that are using my star player cards.  Reuse, Recycle!  (Reduce? Yeah right!  )

[Imdowd80]

I have similar themes in my decks, so I will share my {coat of arms} and my {automated atomitons} (sp). Between a few decks. Like my zombie deck or a my sliver deck or my elf deck. But those are the only cards I switch out.
